Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

After going through the snaps, Chen Yujian has shared about the dessert dish, Li Xue has got a rough picture of the idea behind the dish but she was still nowhere near to the thoughts where she knew what she had to bake in the oven.

The picture that she got for the dessert presentation looked more or less like oreo and red velvet balls. But even a person with the lowest IQ could tell that 'Our Memories' Delight' cannot be just any simple chocolate or cake balls that can easily be found in any dessert shop.

If it had been then what would have made it a speciality dessert of Sweet Delicacy? And why any customer would have cared to come here to get it ordered when they could get it anywhere.

Sighing to her own troublesome luck and incapability to understand the things of the dessert, she took her steps to the customer. This was the only way left for her to know something helpful about the recipe.

The woman was still sitting all elegantly in her chair. If it had been any other one, they would have already grown impatient with this wait. But here this woman was sitting like she was all used to the place and patience. Like fortitude was the best area she has mastered.

Her poise look was putting her in a different category of alluring charms. Li Xue has never been the one to compliment anyone for their looks or gracefulness. Not because she was too arrogant and prideful to do so, rather she knew that the beauty and elegance the people carry in front of others is far different from their actual reality.

But with this woman, things seemed different. Though there was a mystery in her deep – dark eyes, Li Xue could still feel that her aura was as pure and clear as jade. Something inside her was telling her that this woman was not any foe of whom she has to be apprehensive of.

But Li Xue still knows that it is better to be safe than sorry.

Putting her best polite smile on her face, Li Xue made her presence known beside the woman customer. "I hope you like the Mocha Smoothie, Ma'am! Sorry to keep you waiting all this while, we were just busy making some arrangements. Hope you understand us".

The middle-aged woman smiled. "Of course, I can see the hassle the chefs go around preparing desserts of everyone's liking. Don't worry, your special Mocha smoothie has kept me all companied. I never knew that the chefs here can now read their customers' likings."

"Ohh! I am glad that the smoothie was something of your liking, especially when you need lots of patience to wait. I mean the research has found out that chocolates help you calm your nerves and also help you lift your mood", Li Xue explained her stance of offering all diligently.

"If you don't mind, I have come here to know your special preferences for the dessert. Like anything you want or don't want in that recipe", Li Xue added on. To say she was not nervous would be a hell lie. Though nervousness was not her kind of accessory that she loved to wear on her exterior, it was definitely one of the things she always had in her accessory box.

The woman raised her brows slightly as her eyes showed Li Xue some hint of question. Without giving her any opportunity, Li Xue added more of her words, without even being confirmed about her own drawn assumptions from before.

"I mean, 'Our Memories' Delight' has been our custom made dessert and it has always been prepared to keep in your memories and preferences in mind. So I was just here to ask you about those preferences and memories that you would like me to add in that dessert for you".

The smile on the lady's face only deepened more as she looked at the chef. "Had anyone told you that you look quite adorable when you are nervous?"

Li Xue felt her back getting stiff at her words. Did the lady see through her? That was not something easy for anyone to do. Not even her own mother has ever been capable of doing so in all those years she has lived in the same house with her, even though they share thick blood.

Till date, only Mr Beelzebub has been the one to see through her eyes and actions.

But now seeing this lady customer also efficiently seeing through her inner feelings that she was hiding, Li Xue could only blame herself. Has she become so easy in people's eyes, that they can read her as they want?

"Haha … Don't get mad on yourself girl. I have been a student of psychology before. So it's not tough for me to know what the people are thinking inside their head" The lady said, again guessing all of Li Xue's thoughts rightly.

"Oh! I did not know" Not knowing what else she could say at a time like this, Li Xue could only utter out the simplest thing that came in her mind. But then something struck her hard. Her eyes getting snapped at the customer, getting as wide as possible. "Major in Psychology! Did that mean that you have also read my mind from …"

Before even she could complete her sentence, the lady nodded in agreement. "Yes, I already know that you all are very clueless about the dessert I have ordered. But let me clarify that I am not any food critic or any pawn of your market competitors who have come to make things hard for you all. I am just an old customer who has come to taste that dessert again after so many years. So I have ordered it. Furthermore, isn't that dish connected perfectly with this brand's tagline?"

"Being a chef under Sweet Delicacy, I think it's wrong on your side to remain all unknown to the main essence of the dessert brand you are associated with" She added and Li Xue's fingers got clenched under the table.

For the first time, she wants to agree with Ning Meiling. This woman really knows how to bring someone at the brink of losing control. But still, her control was not that easy target to attack.

Plastering a smile on her lips, she said maintaining her level of utmost respect for the woman customer, "Ma'am, since we have accepted your order, don't worry your request will be fulfilled. And believe me, there won't be any complaint on your lips. We know our work the best along with the essence our brand follows. I was just here to take your snippets of memories that you want in your dessert dish. Because as far as I have come to know about Our Memories' Delight, it will be based on the memories you want to remember while having it. Am I wrong to say that? Please correct me if I am wrong".

The smile on the woman's face only deepened seeing Li Xue's confident stance. "I must say that you have got an unwavering confidence. Fine, let me tell you the things you want to know".
